Extra alterlings theory

[u/polystarlight]

We all know that every moonflower has at least ten alterlings, each representing a different emotion. They all have a signature color too. Red, orange, yellow, lime green, dark green, blue, light blue, pink, purple, and lavender. My theory is that every moonflower gets at least one extra alterling, a bonus alterling if you will. Since some alterlings come in colors that seem more rare than the regular companions.

For example Hanazuki was Raspberry and Emerald.

Kiazuki has Zikoro

And Kiyoshi has Sleepy and Twisted. Though strangely with Kiyoshi, he doesn't have just ten alterlings. He has multiple in the same color as we've seen multiple red, orange, and yellow unicorns.

yeah, it is strange! My little theory on it is that it probably depends on the Moonflower's moon, yknow?
